The Real Reason We Don't Compliment People (Or Ourselves)


Listen Later

Why is it so hard to SAY OUT LOUD the GOOD we see in others? Why is it even harder to say good things about OURSELVES? Even when it’s true? 
.
Some people feel that, when they call out the GOOD in others, it makes them less than the words that leave their own mouth. But it’s JUST the opposite. It actually makes you EXPAND. Because when you accept, when you acknowledge, You incorporate that good on some level-even without any action currently. Still, in this moment, You become more GOOD. You become GREATER. you become more beautiful. Just by seeing. And Saying. And acknowledging.
.
What does this do for your children? Well, infinite. That’s what this does. It has an infinite and immeasurable impact that surpasses just this moment. Because, if your child thinks about your acknowledgement any time- tomorrow or twenty years in the future, it motivates them internally.
.
And the same thing goes for ANYONE that you CALL OUT THE GOOD IN- your partner, your mother, a STRANGER… the effects are infinite and cannot, i repeat CANNOT be MEASURED.
.
So, you wanna create MAGIC?
.
CALL OUT THE GOOD. CALL IT OUT, CALL IT OUT
.
SHOUT IT OUT. SHOUT IT OUT
.
SPEAK IT. SAY IT. SHOUT IT FROM THE ROOFTOPS. 
.
You are so beautiful. You are so kind. You’re an amazing DANCER. You’re an INCREDIBLE SINGER.
.
YOU ARE A PHENOMENAL WRITER. 

You are so KIND. 

YOU ARE A REALLY HONEST HUMAN BEING, YOU KNOW THAT? 

YOU SPEAK REALLY WELL, YOU KNOW THAT?

YOUR FUNNY AS HELL, YOU KNOW THAT?

YOU RIDE THAT BICYCLE AWFULLY WELL, YOU KNOW THAT?

SAY IT. SPEAK IT. I DARE YOU. 

AND WATCH, WHAT BECOMES OF YOU-

….. The entire UNIVERSE
